Weak. There should be a simultaneous PC release. Not to sound like I'm trying to start another PC vs. Console flame war, but BioShock is really starting to feel like it's abandoned its PC roots and is just going full bore for the console crowd now. Not necessarily a bad thing, mind you, but bad for me, as I don't have a next gen console.

360 is the lead platform for Bioshock, fwiw.

Yeah, but I guess in my mind, going back all the way to when we were just beginning to see concept art for BioShock, and they were still going with the WWII Nazi lab concept, it's always been indelibly rooted in my mind as a "PC game that's also going to be released on the 360". More and more I've been seeing that it's the other way around. Oh well, no harm, it will be an awesome game either way. I just want to play the demo.

Odd. I'm at 28% now and it's been going pretty steady for me. 29% as I type this, in fact.

If this game doesn't sell in vast quantities, I'll consider giving up all hope in those who claim to want or need original IPs.

Apart from what you hoped for, what else did you expect? And who the hell took a dump in your Ben & Jerry's?

I just hit 30%, but I doubt this is going to finish before I wake up tomorrow.

Yep, Marketplace is down for me. I can connect to Live, but trying to bring up the Friends list just lagged the hell out of the 360. Sheesh.

Yep im pretty sure the demo killed MS servers...bad for us but good news for them. That means a lot of people know about it and will hopefully buy it. (Assuming its good of course).

Finally bought my Collectors Edition. This server drop was such a cocktease.
